Lehi • The Utah Department of Transportation is delivering a Halloween treat for commuters who battle scary congestion in the rapidly growing Silicon Slopes area.
On Thursday morning, a new bridge will open over Interstate 15 on Triumph Boulevard, the first major milestone of the $430 million I-15 Technology Corridor Project. Other features of the project include widening the freeway from four to six lanes, adding frontage roads, replacing 50-year-old deteriorating pavement and rebuilding bridges and major interchanges.
“It has a been a Herculean effort by crews to get this bridge started and completed in just six months,” said UDOT spokesman John Gleason, as crews showed off the new facility to the news media on Wednesday.
